Melissa Bates Interview Transcript
Nancy Rush:
Yay, welcome, Melissa! We're excited to have you here. I'm particularly interested in talking about abundance codes and all this amazing light work that you are so enmeshed in. Let me kick things off by reading your bio so people know who you are.
Today we're joined by Melissa, a renowned light language facilitator, quantum healer, and divine channel who supports spiritual leaders in aligning with their highest timelines. Known as the money code queen, Melissa has guided over 1,000 souls in activating abundance, expanding their spiritual businesses, and embodying their soul purpose. As a high-level galactic and angelic channel, she bridges realms to offer deep healing, divine remembrance, and quantum transformation. Her grounded yet powerful presence helps clients anchor into next-level lives with ease, grace, and overflow. Melissa's mission is to attune others to the divine sweetness of life and the frequency of miracles.
How could you not love that? Like, that's amazing.
Melissa Bates:
My heart, literally as you were reading it, my heart was just getting warmer and warmer and warmer. So juicy! I love doing this work. It's brought so much happiness and cheer to my life. So thank you for having me.
Nancy Rush:
Yay! So let's talk about the abundance codes. I'm super curious — you're known as the money code queen. How did that come about and what does that mean for people?
Melissa Bates:
I'm going to take you back. I feel like how it came about was the ultimate moment for me. I was sitting on my floor in my bedroom and I acknowledged inside of myself that I was like, "I have too much sunshine to be going through what I was going through." Raised by a beautiful single mom, but we definitely knew scarcity. We had all of these different shifts with money that didn't feel stable for us.
So I learned the first thing I learned growing up was the instability of money. But there was a part of me that internally knew that wasn't the only way that life had to be. So in that moment I declared, "Divine God Source, Universe of all that is, lead me, show me, guide me. I 100% surrender. Show me who I am. Show me who I am. Show me who I am." And I just kept praying that every single day until the universe was like, "You're a quantum healer and you're a channel," just throwing it at me.
I never grew up thinking I'm going to be a quantum healer channel. I knew about psychics growing up, but it wasn't a career path that I was choosing. That's what really started the evolution of tapping into light codes and quantum healing.
What I noticed was when I started working with my beautiful quantum healer, she took me through this path of ancestral healing and clearing. I saw my money and my business shift rapidly. I was like, "What are you doing on that other end?" That's something inside of me that I wanted to learn to help my clients do as well. So I feel like that was the blessed butterfly effect of everything that got me to this point in this now moment.
When I think of abundance codes and channel them through, they're already within us. When I work with beautiful clients in the community, it's nothing outside of us. It's just awakening those dormant DNA codes inside of us that we came here to have and hold so much beautiful money to go on our paths and create a whole different reality, a whole different world. That comes from remembering that money is our birthright.
When you awaken those codes, I just feel like the opportunity inside of you just gets so much more expansive and so much larger. It's just this bliss of life comes through your veins and your voice and your eyes. Someone used to call it like, "Whatever you're on, whatever juice you're on, Melissa, I want it." But it's just like that awakening inside of me just literally said there's opportunity wherever you are. So it's really, when I see and I think of abundance codes, it's that beautiful DNA inside of us that's just ready to be awakened.
Nancy Rush:
Yeah, that's awesome. As you're talking about it, it makes me think that so many people sort of view the business as kind of a separate entity, and they don't really think about what they're bringing to the table in terms of their spiritual wisdom and their knowledge and their light. I think that you're talking about this beautiful blending of the practicality of business, but really infusing these light codes and your personal money codes into the whole mixture there.
Tell me what it's like for people when they really bring those two things together. What is possible for them?
Melissa Bates:
I feel like what I've seen for myself and what I've seen for my clients, it just opens up. I feel like there's just this click, this switch. It's like they go from this mindset of like, "This is all that I have. This is how I can serve. It's a little bit limited" to "Holy whoa, there is nothing stopping us." The only individual that will ever stop us is ourselves because we'll see our limitation, right?
So the infusion of it — I just feel like their businesses expand, their life expands. Even for me, I was that person that I was like, "Just give me the business structure, that's all I need and then I'm going to be..." But what happened was I had the business structure and nothing shifted until I started working with the energy that I was holding, which is the beliefs, the thoughts, the ancestral lineage. Once I started incorporating that into my business, that's when everything shifted.
So I just feel like when you can combine these beautiful connection points, it's like this big boom tree that just grows. You become grounded, right? You're stable. I used to say I would throw spaghetti at the wall all the time in my business. But you come from this grounded nature once you start awakening this within your life, within your business. That's when your clients start to connect. That's when your clients feel because it's a vibration they're connecting with.
I always say that our beautiful clients are a soul line. They're contracted. In the quantum are these beautiful souls that are contracted to us. They're saying, "Hey, I need you to wake up. I need you to remember your money codes. So then I'm ready. I'm ready. Just you go on your path and I'm ready. When you're ready, I'm going to find you."
So I really, truly, strongly believe in that as well. That's exactly what I noticed within my shift. When I started bringing that energy on, clients started flying to me. I would literally say, "How did you find me? Where did you come from?" But it was the inspiration inside of me that was just penetrating deeper into the world and in the quantum by activating these beautiful codes.
Nancy Rush:
I love it. As you're talking about this, you have such a beautiful frequency about you and obviously all this light. I think that this is something too that for me, when I stepped more into this as well and really embracing these aspects that we're talking about and bringing them into the business, I have the same experience where clients started to come there and they were beautifully aligned clients. They weren't just anybody. They were beautifully aligned souls that I knew that I could help and support.
Then the best part of it though, is how much more joyful the whole process became. I don't know about you, but the old days of doing business where it was like, you put out your marketing strategy, you put your Facebook ads out, all that stuff was all great and fine, but it wasn't super fun. This is so much more fun to just sit here and to be able to be like, "Okay, I'm ready for you. Come on in."
Melissa Bates:
I agree. I think when I first started business, I felt like I had to be buttoned up and everything. I would record my videos so many times that I was like, "No, people just want me. People just want my presence." So I learned how to truly be myself and that same thing infused in the marketing and everything, and just having fun and just living my life. That's all I did was just allow myself to live my life in front of people. There's the same thing that beautiful soul aligned clients came in.
The deeper aspect of that is when I would meet people in person or get on calls, it was just this — I want to say it's like, you know them. You know them to their core, right? It's like, "I've met you in lifetimes." This is not our first time meeting, obviously the human, but it's like, to get on a random call or meet at a random retreat and go, "Wow, I feel like I've known you forever." I think that has been some of the most amazing experiences for me. Just coming back to meeting on this earthy plane.
Nancy Rush:
That's a little woo woo, but I'm here for it.
Melissa Bates:
We're definitely here for the woo for sure. This is, we embrace this in our work too, because this is exactly this, this heartfelt connection. It creates such a beautiful resonance that I don't know about you, but for me, I feel like I can even step up and even be in more of service to them too. Because I feel that connection, that like they're here for a reason. They were brought to me for a reason. In a way, that's a motivator for me because it's like, of course, you're my people. This is like...
What I love too is that we can see them far beyond what they can see of themselves, right? We see them as these beautiful, fully embodied, soul aligned people with these beautiful missions. Even our everyday warts and our everyday issues, like they don't exist for us because we hold them in such high regard. I think that in of itself and really being able to see people, to give the gift of being able to see them for who they are authentically is huge. Who does not want to be seen for who they are, right?
Nancy Rush:
I agree. I agree. I love just being literally even just expressing that. "I see you. I see you in your power. You're powerful." And I would have people say to me, "Melissa, you saw me in my power before I even knew my power." I think that's to hold those codes, right? To hold those codes is beyond any type of work that I could do in this world, just to help someone really come back to that inner truth, that inner wisdom, that inner fire and see them expand and watch them leap, watch them grow, watch them climb the ladder. I'm just like, "Yes."
Melissa Bates:
We are definitely their biggest cheerleaders. There's no doubt about it because it's so rewarding to know that you're supporting somebody in such a powerful way and that they're having these amazing epiphanies and transformations and things are opening up for them. I know your work is aligned with this too but we're all about greater love, greater expansion. That's something that we're anchoring into the grids here. That's something that's, I think, really profound.
Personally, the more I can encourage people to come into this alignment and to really tap into their inner light, I personally think that that's a huge part of what it is that we're up to in the world. Because how could it not benefit the world?
Nancy Rush:
One of the things I wanted to ask you about was that you do talk about highest timelines and remembrance. I think this dovetails very well into what we've been talking about. Tell me a little bit about, for somebody who's kind of a little bit newer to that kind of idea, what does it mean and how does it impact us?
Melissa Bates:
I'm just, I just felt a channel coming through. So I'm just going to let these beautiful angels come through.
When we look at your highest timeline, your highest timeline is a multidimensional layer of you that is in full expression. Every time you elevate and upgrade, you'll be able to meet those higher level timelines, which will offer you more tools to lead on your soul path.
Beautiful. So they want it to bring through this frequency. So when I explain it further, people can really digest it. When we look at the highest level timelines, I always shuttle through that. There's multiple timelines. There are so many different timelines that you can tap into and you can switch them in the advancements.
The best thing to do is really tapping into, "I choose to live on my highest level soul expression timelines," which really clears out any funk. If you're still connected to the 3D or in really deep matrix coding. Every time you say that you're connecting to the highest timelines in your sovereign grids, that's where the timelines that you really want to shift to because the sovereign grids are out of the matrix. The sovereign grids are out of old identities that you're holding or old ancestral lineage codes that you're holding.
So it's more of just, they really want what's comes through. They really want to symbolize. They really want to make this simple for people and allow people to know that it's just more of a request. It's just a daily request, whether it be with your business, your life, your love life, money, it's just continuously asking, "I choose the highest level soul align timelines," or "I choose the highest level sovereign soul align timelines." And just keeping them, keep choosing them every single day.
That's just going to help you magnetize that frequency and that vibration within your being. Those codes are going to wake up because your timeline are activated by the codes within you that you hold. So the more that you speak that truth, same thing with my prayer, "Show me, guide me, lead me, I surrender." Every time I said that, more codes were awakening and more awakening and awakening. So then that's when I was able to start accessing those soul aligned timelines.
So in the beginning, if you're new to this and you're kind of like, "Well, this is too much to integrate," just start asking for the timelines. When you ask for those timelines, your beautiful teams are going to start bringing exactly what you require to rise, to awaken on those timelines. So that's why they just really want to say, it's just a simple request. The moment that you make that request, we can go through and we can tap in and just rearrange everything.
One of my beautiful mentors, she'd always explain your spirit team and your guides as this big, massive business building where you have your marketing over here, you have your HR over here. We have all these beautiful sections, but it's really just starting to make that request to help you rise.
Nancy Rush:
Yeah, I love that. Just for context first, because some of the people here probably are maybe a little newer to light language. So just to provide a little context, what's happening is, as you're talking about this, you're actually coding and opening the codes for people who are doing this. So what we're doing is connecting them to the energy, which is why saying this phrase every single day is you're literally connecting to the energy of the highest timeline, which then basically takes everything else out of your channel, so to speak. It purifies things. That's why it's such a lovely practice to do that. And of course people will come into greater remembrance as they hear you speak the light language from the angelic. Just gorgeous. And of course, as we bring this energy into this transmission, right?
Melissa Bates:
100%. Yeah. So with the light codes that I'm speaking, it's all angelic energy and they're just giving, and it's always this, this is the beautiful thing. If you're watching this and your soul's like, "I'm ready." Your soul's like, "Okay, let me receive it." If you're watching this and your soul's like, "I'm not ready yet." Then your soul will take it maybe six months later.
But the light codes come through for the awakening to digest. This is a beautiful thing. If someone watched this interview five times, the first time they're going to hear what they're going to hear. The fifth time, they're going to hear something completely different because they're the codes that we're both bringing, they're awakening, they're awakening, they're awakening. And there'd be like, "I didn't even hear them say that the first time." And that's what the codes do. That's what the light codes do. It just helps you grow and open up to really hear the infinite truth that's available, right?
There might be someone right now that's like, "I can't request my highest level timelines. I feel bad. There's people suffering, right? Why would I request how, how do I deserve my highest level timelines?" But these codes are here to help you remember and go, "Ooh, it is safe for me to have it all. It is safe for me to request the money, the abundance, the love, the house, the business. It is safe." So these are what these codes are bringing into the collective just to remember that it is 100% safe to have as much as you desire, because obviously the beautiful souls here have really extremely amazing hearts and we're the ones that are going to change things, right? So having and receiving that money is exactly what we're meant to hear. What we're meant to be doing here on earth is receiving an overflow.
Nancy Rush:
Yeah. I think it's fantastic that you're saying this. I think of it too, is that living a life of truly being embodied freedom and abundance. And I don't mean just financial abundance, but abundance of joy, abundance of love, abundance of connection. Right. And so these are the things that we're here to really to create and to step into, because in doing so and by asking it for ourselves, we are then mirroring we are putting it into the grid of humanity, if you will, into the world. And so that serves its own purpose. So to your point, if people are like, "Well, why should I ask for me if there's all this suffering happening in the world?" It's like, "No, you're a part of the solution by bringing this in for yourself. You're anchoring these beautiful codes in the grids of guidance." So I love that.
Melissa Bates:
I do too. That's exactly what happened to me. I saw this beautiful, one of my older mentors, she was on stage. She spoke and I was hanging out in the 3D there, but I watched her speak and I was like, "Oh, I can do it. She did it." So I really believe that as we rise, so many other people get to rise with us. And that's another powerful aspect of this work.
Nancy Rush:
Yes, exactly, exactly. So one of the key things that you do is you help spiritual leaders embody mastery, right? So I'm curious about how can we support people who are seeking that to start stepping into that frequency? What are some of the ways that, of course, you already gave the beautiful little statement that they can use every day to anchor into their highest timeline, but what else could they be doing to help them embody that?
Melissa Bates:
I mean, I always go old school, meditate. Meditate is one of the best, beautiful ways, right? And in the beginning, it might be hard for you to meditate. So even listening to meditations that are already just guided for you to move through. So I would say if meditation feels a little bit uneasy for you, go with a guided meditation. Pick what you would like to shift with and then type that meditation in YouTube or wherever you want to find it and just go with that. So that's the first thing that really comes through.
The second thing is the healing journey. It's remembering that anything that you're facing right now, it's just a lesson in time to help you get to your next level, right? So when I was coming up against, "I'm not having any clients," it's like, "Okay, well now let me seek how to learn how to elevate myself, right?" So it's looking at whatever is in your current field as, "All right, this is just showing me that I get to build my bridge over this. And there's something inside of me that doesn't feel completely ready to receive that next level or that next timeline. There's nothing wrong with me. This is just a part of my path. This is just a part of me wanting to rise and experience more of my light."
So that number two would just be coming back to that aspect of releasing what doesn't serve you. And taking those steps to heal and create that bridge to your next level. And just really being in that space of confidence that I'm safe to move forward. Right. I'm safe to really have it. Even if I've never seen it in my life where no one around me is doing it, I'm still safe to do it. So now I'm going to work on seeing myself internally. I'm going to ask myself these questions. What inside me doesn't desire this right now? What inside of me would rather have this than option number two?
Aspects of yourself with love. "Oh, I love you so much. You've gotten me so far. Do you want to stay here with me? Or are you ready to go in the quantum for healing?" I know this is a little bit more advanced if you're just learning this, but to simplify, to really just bring it down into simple terms, I would just say, allowing yourself to see yourself and start questioning the internal. If there's something you're manifesting and you haven't received it yet, what inside of me is not ready to receive it?
"Whoa, that vibration feels too heavy to hold. Okay." Is it something that quantum healing can fix? Is it something that meditation can fix? Is it something that tapping can fix? And then start from there, right? That's what I really feel. Number two, and then number three is, there's multiple channels coming through number three is like it's like desiring to be in your full expression. It's like what is that? What does that mean to you? Sitting with your sovereign higher self and you can do automatic scripting and just writing "sovereign higher self."
What would you like to tell me in this moment to get me to that next level? Or same thing with me. I never knew who I was until I knew who I was. So that, a simple prayer, "Divine God Source, Universe of all there is, lead me, show me, guide me, show me who I am. I surrender. I'm open. I'm ready." And just really tapping into that. And that will help you tap into your immaculate divine sovereign codes and it's okay with being, it doesn't have to be overnight. You're allowing it to step by step. You're going to grow, you're going to evolve. As long as you're putting in that beautiful divine soul line work, you're going to grow and you're going to evolve.
Nancy Rush:
Yeah. Yeah, I love that. Thank you for giving so many different ways for people to do it. But for me, at the end of the day, it's almost like the how doesn't really matter, but it's the action of actually coming into the present moment and really allowing your mind to open so that you can receive the guidance. You can receive the downloads that are coming.
I know when I had a mentor once she was very big on meditation and she wanted us to meditate for like 30 minutes a day, two times a day and I was just not having it at that time. And so finally I got how I got over it was I finally just reconciled that it didn't have to be 30 minutes long. That felt kind of at the beginning it felt like a big chunk. So I started with five minutes, but it was quality five minutes, right? So five minutes, and then I got to extend it and extend it. I also used, to your point about the guided meditations, there's some fantastic I-Awake technologies. I don't know if you've ever heard of them, but they have some beautiful guided meditations, and they're all encoded with the binaural beats, so like the theta, alpha, gamma waves. So you can use those and actually get into a meditative state even faster rather than just doing it on your own and it's a much higher quality.
But coming back to your original point which is that coming into yourself and really opening to ask for the information, right? And it takes practice don't you think? It just does.
Melissa Bates:
Yeah. It doesn't feel natural at first. At least it didn't for me. Same. Even to that point, breath work. That was me. Breath work. I was like, "Whoo, I'll do two minutes of breath work and then five minutes and 10 minutes and working my way up." Something that helped me in the beginning was what I would say to myself because I was a queen at procrastination. So I would say, "Melissa, what's on the other side of this?" Right? If you're going to go watch another Netflix show, what's on the other side of this that on the other side of the next Netflix show that you could be investing your time in you say you want to build this beautiful business you say you want to have this you want to say but are you putting in the time so I would call myself forward that's something that really helped me and it wasn't shaming myself it was just saying, “Well, listen you have these big dreams girl.”
I watch Netflix still, but it's like, at that time I was watching Netflix. So it was really just allowing myself to go, "I'm going to call myself forward. What's on the other side of this? If I take an hour and really invested my journaling or the meditation or just brainstorming and going, what would my life look like on a soul level if I really operated from my soul? Soul, what do you want to do? What did you come here on earth to do?" And just having those deep, beautiful conversations. So going back to the same thing, it's just that internal deep dive, that shifted me drastically. That was the mastery of it, just really coming in and calling myself forward.
Nancy Rush:
Yeah. I love that because for me too I think it's really important for people to understand their why. Like they to have the big goals, yes, 100%, but what's the real reason why you want those goals? Because if the why is big enough that gives you the motivation to see because getting from point A to point B is sometimes a little bumpy along the way. It's not always the easiest, particularly for those of us that have started the entrepreneurial journey. We may have varying degrees of success, but that journey to get to that point certainly has been bumpy along the way. So I'm curious to see what your thoughts are about that.
Melissa Bates:
I have a lot of thoughts on that because I feel like when I started this journey five years ago I went up so quickly and I was just hanging out in the higher dimensions doing all the things and then I came crashing down and when I came crashing down it was really hard for me to get out of bed and at that point would just celebrate myself if I ate that day if I took a shower that day so I know how it feels when you have no motivation or no energy to do your dream but for me what really got me out so many times was the why it was the why it was seeing that evolution of myself and what I had already done and then coming back. But it was also just going and knowing that this work helps so many people in the world. And when I do this work, it's some of the best energy that I experienced, some of the happiest days that I experienced.
So at that moment, and this is what's coming to me, if you feel like your light is feeling dormant or everything feels stagnant, what I would say to myself is "I choose to awaken the light inside of me. I choose to awaken the light inside of me." Every single day, that's all I would say sometimes. "I choose to awaken the light inside of me" and giving that direct command, all of our beautiful teams come in and they help us. They give us these little ideas. They say, "Hey, go out for a walk. It's really nice outside." So that's what I did. Got out of bed, went for a walk. I might have came back and got back in bed, but I went for that walk and that walk felt good.
So really understanding both ends, the highs, highs, we feel amazing to do the work and the really low lows. If it's that really low, low, look at that why. Look at where you would like to be, right? And acknowledging that where you are right now, it's just a leap in time. It's just a moment. It's not defining the rest of your life. It's just, for me, what I started saying is like, "Wow, soul, you're really powerful to go through all these things in life. You are a master, aren't you?" And just having some fun with it, right? Having, bringing some higher vibrations in those darker moments of that time and knowing that we're going to get through them.
And then beyond that community we're not the only ones going through this right reach out to a friend reach out to a family member join online that's why I found my people I found my people online right it's was so beautiful to just say, "Hey, this is how I'm feeling." And you have these beautiful souls jump in and go, "I got you. You're not alone. I've been there. Let me hold space for you." Right. My beautiful friend sent me a message today. It was on Instagram. And it said, "I always have 12 minutes for you." And I was like, "I love you." I think it's so beautiful because a lot of us feel we don't want to bring that on someone else. We don't want to share that those lower ends because we're like, "Oh, I don't want to put that energy on anyone else." But it's like when you have beautiful people in your life that are literally saying, "I'm here for you," you got to open that door. Some of those conversations helped me restore my light when I couldn't see it for myself.
So a big thing is, one, you're powerful. Ask to restore your light inside of you. And then also go, "Hey, I would love someone that can understand what I'm going through right now to help me shift. Maybe it's therapy. Maybe it's meditation. Maybe it's quantum healing." But the moment we ask for it, it is going to pour into our life. And it might just be someone at a coffee shop. You have a great conversation with them.
Nancy Rush:
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Totally random. Yeah. I love that you're bringing this in because as you're talking about it, the idea of community is so important and from a little bit larger context, I really feel that a lot of people in business feel like they have to do it all by themselves. The truth of the matter is that we have a massive soul family. We have a massive team that wants to come and co-create with us.
So I'd love it if you talk a little bit about how can we deepen that connection? So first of all, how can we create the connection to our team of light and how can we deepen that connection so that we start to really feel as though like when, for example, I'll sit down with my board, my spiritual board and be like, "Okay, we're going to talk about the business. What does the business want?" Right. And so, but I think for many people that feels a little elusive, they don't feel like they have the ability to tap into that. So there you go.
Melissa Bates:
I love this. I love this. So the biggest thing that I want to say is angels. Angels, they're so, I mean, obviously we have, depending on if you feel like you're a star seed, we can go all those anchors. But first and foremost, angels. There's so many angels just waiting for jobs, just waiting for it to be able to support us. So if you're just getting started, call on your angels. There's obviously the archangels, which when I first started, Archangel Michael came out of my mouth every single day, multiple times a day. And then beyond that, angels. You can even say "High angelic realm, divine angels. I'm excited to get to know my spirit team more." And a lot of us have a very high level angelic presence on our spirit team. So you can start with them.
So with the beautiful angels just out in the world, ask for anything and everything. I like to play with my angels. I'm like, "Angels, can you get me the best parking spot today? Thank you." Even little things like that. Or "Angels, when I get my coffee today, make sure it is made by the best barista in the house," right? We have fun with that. So starting to play in that way, "Angels send me a sign." The other day I have no flowers, I'm on the second floor, I have no flowers around me but a hummingbird flew up to my window. I was like, "All right universe loud and clear, thank you." So play with your angels whatever you're requesting.
"Angels I would like to get to know my spirit team more send me signs you know sometimes you're in a bookstore and you're like I need to read this book right so it's just whatever you desire Make that request to them. "Angels, I want to go to a trip to Bali. Help me navigate this. Help me navigate it financially, mentally, physically, emotionally, spiritually. Help me put it all together." And they're going to come in and they're going to help you put it all together. So the biggest thing with that is just ask. Just ask them and they'll come in.
And then if you want to feel them more and you want to know, "Hey, are they really around me?" I always love to ask for angelic hugs. And it's just like... Like I sometimes even, I remember I was on the floor once and I was just crying and I'm like, "Angels just hold me right now." And I just felt like this big blanket of love come over me. Right. So it's really knowing that we have, our teams are so vast and so expansive. But once again, if you're just starting, then tap into beautiful angels and say, for example, I definitely anchor in the star seed family. So my soul family is Arcturian. And if you know you're an Arcturian starseed, "Angels, I would love to get to know my Arcturian family more. Show me, lead me, guide me." How I learned that was I did a big YouTube search, but I also started reading books about Arcturians. And when I was going through these videos and going through the books, I was like, "This is me. This makes so much sense." It's just like all the pieces were adding up. So once again, going back to that, just straight clarity, whatever you desire to experience, learn, acknowledge, just ask your angels.
Nancy Rush:
Yeah, I love that. I would tack on to that too, is that I've noticed in my experience with people when I'm helping guide them in terms of really connecting to their teams and being able to kind of, whether it's the angels or it's the Arcturians or the Syrians or whoever's on the team, because like you said, most of us, if not all of us have really big teams, but part of it too, I think is asking what you want to ask but then going within to open to receive the information and then just trusting whatever comes through even if it seemed outrageous.
Because I do think that the logical mind wants to sort of run the show and the logical mind is like "they told you to go do X and it's like that sounds super silly or am I just making this up?" I've seen that a lot too where people just think that they're making stuff up. The more we can come into that beautiful neutral grounded energy and open ourselves to the guidance and then it takes practice like anything does it gets easier and easier like when I first started I had to be very kind of conscious about how I was opening my channel and who I was talking to and what was happening and now it's just, it's like, it just comes through. It's like, I don't even think about it anymore. Right. But it took time to get there. It took time.
Melissa Bates:
I think how I started when I worked with angelic Oracle cards, that was kind of my first little dabble into it, but I definitely do 100% believe whenever you're connecting to different frequencies and vibrations, it's being aware. And if you're connecting to your Arcturian families, you're in family, et cetera. Thank you. I'll use this example. I had one beautiful soul come to me and she was starting to work with Sophia Christ consciousness. And she said, "Yeah, when she comes in, it doesn't feel good at all." And I was like, "Okay, no, that's not Sophia Christ consciousness because she's pure love." And I was like, "That's where we 100% require that awareness." So you can always feel who you're connecting to. And you get this gut feeling as well. But when I say with angels, it's a lot easier to connect to angels than going out to the other beautiful divine beings of light.
And one thing that I wanted to add on as you were speaking and making these delicious points is whatever you ask for, ask for your angels, or if you're working with your spirit team, et cetera, turning council of light to clear the path.
Nancy Rush:
Oh, I love that. Yeah.
Melissa Bates:
Right. It's like, "Well, ask, I want to manifest this. I want to manifest this," but it's like, "Wait, but also clear the path for me. Make sure you clear the path. So I'll do whatever I need to do here on the ground. You see all the other things, make sure you clear the path." So that's another beautiful add on to that connection.
Nancy Rush:
I love that you brought that in because it's so true. We can ask, and if we aren't asking for the path to be cleared, we could actually make it harder for ourselves. Right. And so I think then asking to clear the path. The other thing I love about this is that I think this is extremely empowering for people because, A, you have access to resources. You're not doing it all by yourself. B, you have access to divine wisdom that's coming through. You just simply have to open the channel and listen. See, you're removing obstacles from the path. You're clearing the path. So thank you for bringing that in. I've never really heard anybody express it that way. So perfect.
Melissa Bates:
I talk to my angels all the time. I'm like, "Make this easy." Because during my spiritual path, there have been moments that just felt like so gut-wrenching and heavy. And I was like, "Okay, we need to do this different way. What am I missing?" They're like, "Ask to clear the path." And I'm like, "Let's ask to clear the path." So yeah, it's been very beneficial.
Nancy Rush:
Yeah, it just, it seems like such a simple thing, but it's like, as soon as you said it, I was like, "Oh, of course it makes complete sense. Why wouldn't we do that?"
I mean, we're going to wind up, we could wind up talking for another 30 minutes easily. So, but for the sake of time, just, is there anything else that's coming through that you want to share with our people?
Melissa Bates:
I would say just going back to the abundance codes is, as you're starting this beautiful journey and wherever you are abundance wise, and this is once again, not just financial, it's that whole experience. Ask for your dormant wealth codes. "I invite my dormant wealth codes to awaken. I invite my angels to help my dormant wealth codes awaken inside of me." And you'll feel it. Even when I said that, it was like, "Woo," just open up to more. So, we have codes for everything. You can even say "I invite any dormant codes around my spiritual business to awaken and expand and help me create a higher level impact and service." So that last statement is just continuously ask for that inner truth that already exists to awaken so that you have a higher frequency to manifest and call in whatever you're desiring.
Nancy Rush:
Yeah. And to that point too, it's, I think it's important for people to recognize this isn't like some seriously esoteric topic. The light codes are a very real thing. We all have access to libraries of light and we're downloading light codes, whether we're consciously aware of it or not, but we are. So this beautifully brings it into this. It grounds it into this beautiful moment here where it's like, we can actually consciously ask for the support that we're so desiring and we'll receive it because the universe I always love to say that the universe is conspiring on your behalf.
Melissa Bates:
Yeah.
Nancy Rush:
And I think so many times we can feel like the universe isn't conspiring on our behalf especially if the road is bumpy or we're going through some personal issue or something but then bringing ourselves back to this anchor this connection knowing that there's something so much bigger than us that they're specifically to support us even if it's just angels if that's all you can wrap your head around right that's like fantastic and for me that's been a way to really keep myself grounded and centered because sometimes being an entrepreneur is a lonely journey or it can feel like a lonely journey right.
Melissa Bates:
Yeah, I agree with that. And I just feel like even if you're in the beginning and you're in that space of not fully trusting the universe, just take a moment and look back. "Universe, how did you show up for me in this way?" I would literally say that. "Universe, how did you show up for me?" And the universe will show you. And it kind of brings this in of like, "Oh, yes, you did show up for me in that way and that way and that way," which brings in that confidence for when you start even asking for more and bigger things. Yeah. It's, take a little look back at your life at maybe those points where you're like, "Wow, I really did get the support that I required."
Nancy Rush:
And I'm glad you said that because that reminded me what I wanted to say earlier was that the celebrations, the recognition of even the smallest increments of progress are so important to anchor in because they build on each other, right? And so we have a tendency to kind of look at like what's not working in our lives. And if we can shift our attention from that to what actually is working, even if it's the smallest little incremental, like you said today, "I got out of bed and I went for a walk." Like if that's all it is, that's still progress. And so I think really reminding yourself that you are making progress helps to keep everything kind of alive. And I don't know, I find it more motivating because I'm like, "Yes, things are shifting and moving."
Melissa Bates:
Yeah. I agree. I have been on both spectrums where I'm focusing on everything that's going wrong and I'm like, "Wow." And you just feel more things going wrong. And then the moment I start focusing on, bringing in gratitude, even "I'm grateful for the shower. I'm grateful for my food. I'm grateful for my car." You change your glasses. There's a different filter that we're wearing. And I think that's really important for people to acknowledge because a lot of us are taught just to focus on, "What do I need? This, this, this." But what about all the beautiful blessings that we have? The computer, the mic, how we're connecting virtually.
And I'll just say this lastly. I remember in the beginning a lot of people were like "Oh I don't like Instagram and this and this and this" and I'm like "Instagram has brought me to my soul family" right it's just a different view and it's like okay it's just kind of like opening up that opportunity to see things in a little bit different and how it's really supporting you in that space.
Nancy Rush:
Yeah because I think truly that in getting into the quantum just a little bit but what we're putting out the words we speak our thoughts our intentions all of that goes into the quantum. And so if you're focused on the negative or what's not working or the struggle or whatever, it's almost like you're pretty much asking the quantum to manifest more of it for you. And so really having mastery of our thoughts and our words and our feelings and stuff is incredibly important. And granted, I don't know anybody that does it perfectly. Some days are better than others. But I always come back to that remembrance that it's like, "Oh, wait, me saying I don't have enough time is going to create more. I don't have enough time for me," which it has. So I've worked very hard to break that one.
Melissa Bates:
Yeah. I'm like, "Hold tight. Timekeepers make it get me there on time." I always play like that too.
Nancy Rush:
Yeah. Yeah, it works. And to that point, have some fun with it. That's the one thing I've really enjoyed is that when I'm working with people, their team does come through and they channel through. And I always am amazed at the sense of humor that they all have. It's so amazing. It's actually more fun to co-create with them because it's like, "Oh, you silly person. You just said this," right?
Melissa Bates:
Yeah. Yeah. It's like, "Play. Is it that serious?" And I'm like, "Yeah, it's not. But it feels a little serious team."
Nancy Rush:
Well, this has been a fantastic conversation, Melissa. Thank you so much. I would love it if you would talk about your free gift because it's pretty cool.
Melissa Bates:
Yes, yes, yes, yes. So it is a beautiful divine PDF that you can go through. It's a four-step process to activate your wealth embodiment. And it really takes you first and foremost, the nervous system, because when your nervous system is open to receive, you can obviously receive more. When your nervous system doesn't feel safe to hold, then that's when you can kind of repel things. And we're not about that. So it works through the nervous system in the beginning. And then it takes you through a couple of my favorite things to do, which are one of the, at the end is scripting. I feel like scripting has changed my life and my frequency and my vibration. And it also kind of walks you through tapping into that future self and that future vibration. This, once again, these are things that I love to do that I have seen so much progress in my life. So I just truly hope you enjoy the beautiful divine PDF.
Nancy Rush:
Oh, that just sounds great. And I love that you put those practices in there because I have found them too, to be so incredibly helpful. So I love it. It's a beautiful grounded, but I can feel it very light infused gift. So that's awesome. So we're going to be doing a two to three hour guided immersion and helping people. We're going to basically take them through the seven core pillars that shape a soul aligned purpose driven business. And so then that will be exploring some topics like using your intuition and business, connecting with your team, that sort of thing. And then after that, we are going to be bringing people into a one on one session to really look the scope of their, both their business, but also their personal lives too, because they're interwoven to see what's limiting or blocking them in some way. And then they get to walk away with some really juicy action items and things to do and some strategic knowledge. So that's what we're doing.
Melissa Bates:
I love that. That's, I feel like everyone needs it. Everyone needs it. It's that merge to see both sides is where it gets so juicy.
Nancy Rush:
Yes, I totally agree. It's definitely a passion of mine for sure. So, love being able to do that for people well listen this has been fantastic thank you so much, Melissa.
Melissa Bates:
Thank you for having me it's been an honor I've had fun I love it I love doing this thank you.
Nancy Rush:
Yeah, you're welcome.
